Somehow it’s fitting that N.C. State’s football game against Central Michigan on Saturday has been designated as “Bowl Day,” because if this year’s Wolfpack wants to have any prayer of playing in the postseason, it better beat the Chippewas.

The promotion is designed to honor State’s bowl tradition. The trophies from all the school’s postseason victories will be on display on the concourse at Carter-Finley Stadium. There will also be halftime ceremony in which the Wolfpack’s bowl MVPs will be honored.
